- When cloning, the Clone window may move behind the main CPS window. Note thatno action can be taken in the main CPS window until the Clone operation success orfailure message is acknowledged. Please click on the task bar button for the Cloningwindow to move it to the front, and press OK when the operation is completed.- When Text Messaging Service (TMS) is used while in Data Scan, and the 'Data ScanPreamble Length' is increased or decreased, the 'Short Timer' needs to be increased ordecreased accordingly. For example, in Direct Data Mode of operation, if the value ofthe 'Data Scan Preamble Length' is increased to 30 (from the default of 20), the 'ShortTimer' should be increased to 25 sec (from the default of 15). For every 10 unitsadded for 'Data Scan Preamble Length', the 'Short Timer' should be increased by 10sec.- If you delete a record that is being referenced by an inapplicable (grayed-out) field(e.g., delete the Zone or Channel referenced by the Emergency Revert Zone orChannel when the Emergency Revert field is set to “Selected Channel," and latermake that field accessible (e.g., set Emergency Revert to “Revert Channel," pleaseremember to select a valid record. Otherwise, the reference field will remain blank.- When using the Codeplug Comparison feature with two codeplugs that both have acontact with an empty call list, after navigating though the contacts in comparatormode, the empty call list in comparator codeplug would appear to have data from theprevious record. The Comparator will still correctly indicate that there is nodifference between the two codeplugs.- If you select multiple records and delete them, then undo the operation, the recordsare "undeleted" one at a time instead of in a single Undo.- During Codeplug Comparison, when a field's value is changed indirectly becauseanother field is changed, that field will still show up with a >> (copy button) ratherthan a match symbol.- During Codeplug Comparison, on PCs running Windows Vista, if many fields on asingle page are different in the two codeplugs being compared, the fields may becomemisaligned, making it difficult to tell with which field the values displayed areassociated.- If you delete a Unified Call List entry referenced by a Hot List, resulting in theHot List entry becoming null, and then set the Hot List entry to Unassigned, youmay be unable to write the codeplug to the radio. An error message saying "Packfailure during write" will be displayed. If this occurs, save the codeplug as anarchive file, close it, then open the archive file and write it to the radio. Thiswill clear the error, and the write will proceed normally.- If you add a new Scan List using the “Current" rather than “Default" setting, the firstmember of the new Scan List will show up in the Invalid Fields report even though itsfields are not invalid. To correct the condition, save the codeplug as an archive file,close it, and then open the archive file. The Invalid Fields report will no longercontain the Scan List member.- If your computer goes into sleep mode while an ASK is attached, do not remove theASK while your computer is still in sleep mode.

Installation:=============1) Please be sure to install the CPS or Tuner application BEFORE attaching the USBcable and turning the radio on.2) When the Installation CD is inserted into the CD-ROM drive, the installation willstart automatically if auto start is enabled for the PC. Follow the on-screeninstructions to install the software.3) Please refer to the CPS Programming Installation Guide, which is included with thissoftware for more detailed information.4) If you are installing both the CPS and the Tuner, install them to separate directories.5) If a file installed by the CPS later becomes corrupted, the Repair option on theInstallation CD may be used to restore it.6) If the PC has never had a 1-Wire USB device connected to it before, such as the USBdongle used for FLASHkeys or Advanced keys, then plug it in right after installationto complete the USB install. If it is not recognized or if auto-detect can not locate theUSB device driver, then point the New Hardware Wizard's Driver installer to it in theinstall drive, such as "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers." The wizard should then findand install the driver automatically.

Connecting the PC to the Radio:===============================

Use only the PMKN4012A PC to radio cable.

When using the USB cable, be sure to always click "Yes" on the Digital Signaturewindow whenever it is displayed by the operating system. Wait until the radioenumerates on the PC before attempting to read or program the radio (5-7 seconds onWindows XP, 15-20 seconds on Windows Vista). If you do not wait for enumeration, theread or write will fail.

Note that you cannot continuously write the same radio multiple times withoutperforming any other operations in between successive writes.

We recommend that you disable Proventia Desktop, BlackICE, and any other software thataffects your networking capability, since these types of programs sometimes interferewith reading from and writing to your radio. If BlackICE is installed and required for thePC, ensure the BlackICE service is Stopped and the start-up type is set to Manual. Thiscan be verified on Windows XP by going to Start->Settings->Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services. Under the Name column look for BlackICE.

To prevent intermittent Blue Screen Windows crash when attaching or detaching theMotorola APX Radio to a PC using USB, verify Nortel Contivity VPN Client Software isnot installed on the PC. If it is installed and required for the PC, ensure that theEACFILT.sys driver is disabled on the “Motorola APX Series Radio" connection byperforming the following steps:

If the wireless internet connection on your Laptop/PC gets disabled when you attach theMotorola APX radio to your Laptop / PC, follow these trouble-shooting steps to addressthe problem:

- Open Network Connections explorer window by going to Start->settings->Control Panel -> Network Connections. Right click and select Open.- Note the name of the LAN Connection associated with the "Motorola APXSeries Radio" device. It should be something like "Local Area Connection 7".- Go to the Advanced menu, and select Advanced Settings,- Under the "Connections" section, re-order the connections such that yourwireless or primary internet LAN connection is listed above the LANconnection associated with the "Motorola APX Series Radio" (i.e. the primarywireless / internet connection is given a higher priority than the MotorolaAPX Series radio connection). This can be done by selecting the connectionand then using the up/down arrows to move the connection in the list.- Click OK on the Advanced Settings windowNote that the above described issue may also occur if your wireless driver utility has aconfiguration setting to Disable Wi-Fi until the wired connection is terminated. Ensurethat any such a setting is disabled, so that the wireless connection stays active even whena wired link is present.

Disable "Netbios over TCP/IP". This will help reduce unnecessary traffic sent to the radioby the PC. Follow these steps:

- Open Network Connections explorer window. To do that, go to Start->Settings->Control Panel -> Network Connections. Right click and selectOpen.- Right-click on the LAN connection associated with "Motorola APX SeriesRadio" and select properties.- Select "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" and click Properties.- Click Advanced button on the General page (bottom right).- Select the WINS tab.- Select "Disable Netbios over TCP/IP".- Click OK on the pages opened for the setting to take effect.

On the Motorola APX Series Radio LAN connection, uncheck unused items. The LANconnection on the PC only requires the Internet Protocol to communicate with the Radio.This ensures the other unused items don't create any undesirable effects whencommunicating with the Radio device. Follow these steps:

- Open Network Connections explorer window. To do that, go to Start->Settings->Control Panel -> Network Connections (right click and selectOpen).- Right-click on the LAN connection associated with "Motorola APX SeriesRadio" and select properties.- On the General Tab, under the section "This Connection uses the followingitems" uncheck all items except for Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). If the PCsupports both IPv4 and IPv6, ensure to keep both IPv4 and IPv6 checked.

For POP25 Operation:====================TCP Retransmissions on your machine needs to be set to 5 or higher. Motorolarecommends that if the following registry keys are defined on your system,they be set to the following values for POP25 operation:

On Both Windows Vista and XP:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\TcpMaxDataRetransmissions - 5 or more

On XP Only:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\TcpMaxConnectResponseRetransmissions - 3 or more

Programming Hints:==================- To get help on a field, open the Field Information window (on the right of the CPSscreen) while focus is on the field. We recommend that you "pin" the FieldInformation window by clicking on the thumbtack icon at the top right of the FieldInformation window.- View the "What's New" information on the Home Mode screen and view the HelpTutorials to learn about exciting new features such as Codeplug Comparison,Undo/Redo, and Restore to Default.- The APX7000 CPS does not support system key files. Only the Advanced SystemKey (ASK, hard key) is supported.- The APX7000 CPS does not support Federal Information Processing Standards(FIPS).

Advanced System Keys Administrator==================================- If you will be programming Advanced System Keys (ASK), and you have theR10.00.00 or later ASTRO 25 Mobile or Portable CPS installed, use the sameAdvanced System Keys Administrator to program keys for your APX7000 CPS.- If you do not have the R10.00.00 or later ASTRO 25 Mobile or Portable CPSinstalled, you can install the Advanced System Keys Administrator from theinstallation CD by running Install_ASKAdmin.exe.- After installation, launch the Advanced System Keys Administrator using the desktopicon or from Start -> Programs -> Advanced System Keys Administrator.- If your computer goes into sleep mode while an ASK is attached, do not remove theASK while your computer is still in sleep mode.
